Chongzhen's online shopping system

Chapter 118 Chinese Pinyin
The railway from Beijing to Tianjin has been under construction for more than five months. In fact, the progress is not very fast.

The main reason is that there are great restrictions on raw materials.

Steel mill capacity cannot keep up.

"Can it be completed before the end of the year?" Zhu Youjian asked Fan Jingwen, whose nose was red from the cold.

"Your Majesty, if it doesn't snow heavily, there should be no problem in completing the project. If it snows heavily, I'm afraid it will be difficult. It will be difficult to transport wood and stone, which will definitely slow down the construction speed."

Zhu Youjian nodded, and the weather is beyond human control.He turned his attention to the workers working in the distance. Although the weather was cold, they were working hard.

These are farmers recruited by the railway bureau, who are responsible for three meals a day and are paid wages.

There is no life in the fields right now, staying at home will only consume food.Most people intend to come out to find a place to eat and relieve some pressure at home, but they didn't expect to have wages.

Getting paid after work every day is the happiest moment of their day.Most people are not willing to spend the money they get.

Some are thinking of making a pair of cotton shoes for my mother.

Some people think about making decent clothes for their wives.

Some are thinking of buying some food for their greedy children.

In short, when a person works hard with a vision for the future, he will always be happier.

"Workers should not be short of money. If there is not enough, I will allocate it to you from internal funds."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Fan Jingwen replied respectfully.

When there is a shortage of workers' money, first of all, he doesn't know how to do it, and secondly, the people below him don't dare to do it.

In the first two months, there was a small official in charge who found some excuse to deduct the wages of several workers. The next day, he was kidnapped and taken away by Jinyiwei Wuhuada.He also suffered from His Majesty.

Although he didn't know who it was, he was sure.

There must be Jin Yiwei among these working farmers!
Human calculations are always worse than heaven's calculations. On the day of Laba, heavy snow began to fall from the sky.

After a while, white was seen on the ground.

As the snow gradually thickened, the entire capital became completely silent.

"Children, don't be greedy, after Laba is the New Year."

The twelfth lunar month in Beijing was spent in hustle and bustle.

Amidst the sound of firecrackers, Zhu Youjian ushered in his third New Year in Ming Dynasty.

The Gengwu Year has arrived.

Looking back on all the things that happened in the past year, Zhu Youjian has a feeling of reality and fantasy.

From the construction of cement roads to the birth of trains.

From Gao Yingxiang's rebellion to Jisi's change.

One pile, one piece.

The trajectory of history is being quietly changed by him.

The establishment of slaves in the north is no longer a concern, and Mongolia on the grasslands has become docile and well-behaved.

He decided to be lazy and let his tense nerves relax a little.

On this day, he called both Zhou and Tian to Qianqing Palace.

"Long live, why did you summon us two here?"

"I will teach you how to play poker today."

"Long live, it's still daytime now, it won't be too late at night." Zhou Yufeng's face turned red.

Long live, really, I invited people to play poker in broad daylight, including Sister Tian.Could it be that he wanted to?

Oh, no, no, how can we be together.

But what if Banzai is angry?
That won't work either. Let Sister Tian come first and I will assist you.

Well, that's it.

Zhu Youjian looked at Zhou Yufeng's cheeks suddenly flushed strangely, was he thinking too much?
"Ahem, today, I will teach you the real Landlord fight! That is, playing cards."

After saying that, he took out a stack of cards.

Tell them the rules.

"It's quite interesting, but I don't know why Your Majesty calls it playing poker." Zhou Yufeng thought while listening.

But soon she knew the answer.

"Don't move! Bomb! Do you want it? Plane! Not yet? Two!"

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
Zhou Yufeng's face turned red.

It turns out that the sound is used to describe the action!
During the following holidays, the three of them would get together and play cards whenever they had nothing to do.In order to increase the fun, some money will be added as a bet if something happens.Zhu Youjian is the most skilled, so he naturally wins more.Tian Xiuying is smart and makes rapid progress.Only Zhou Yufeng seems to be out of touch and always loses focus when playing cards.Don’t play the cards you should play, and don’t play the cards you should play.I don’t know what I’m thinking.

Just a few days after the good days, trouble struck again.

Just after the Lantern Festival, the North Korean envoy came.

Help!

The messenger told them their humiliation with tears in their eyes. Look at how your children have been bullied. I hope Dad Ming can seek justice for his children.

After Zhu Youjian listened, he asked him to go back.

He had known about this for a long time, but he didn't plan to care about it for the time being.

Although the current Lee family in Korea is very loyal, their descendant Nanbang is so annoying and disgusting.

Forget it, just give me some money to spend.

The next day, he summoned the North Korean envoy again.

"At present, the treasury of the Ming Dynasty is empty, there are disasters in the country, and there are constant refugees. It also coincides with the establishment of slaves and entering the customs a few years ago, and the wanton looting has greatly damaged our vitality. It is really inappropriate to use weapons again. I am afraid that there is nothing we can do to help Amin occupy the city. .”

When the messenger heard this, his expression changed drastically.The hope upon arrival turned into disappointment.

"Although I can't send troops to help, I can reward you with 10 taels of silver to help you tide over the difficulties." He has plenty of money, so spend it yourself.

"My lord, on behalf of my king, I would like to kowtow to Your Majesty." After saying that, he knelt down again and bowed down.When he stood up, his face looked much better.

Being able to bring some money back home at least has an explanation in front of the king.

The North Korean envoy left with the money.

After experiencing such an episode, Zhu Youjian's somewhat lethargic heart was brought back.

eighteenth day of the first lunar month
He summoned his undercover chief assistant Fan Jingwen.

"Chairman, look at this." Zhu Youjian held a piece of paper and handed it to Fan Jingwen.

Fan Jingwen took it and looked at the circles and lines on it. After working on it for a long time, he still didn't understand what was drawn on it.

"May I ask Your Majesty, what is this?"

"This is pinyin."

"Pinyin?"

"I researched this in my spare time. You can phoneticize Chinese characters. Look at this." Zhu Youjian explained the usage of pinyin to Fan Jingwen in detail.

The more Fan Jingwen heard it, the more shocked he became.

At the end, my mouth was open and I couldn't say a word.

It is hard for him to imagine that if this thing called pinyin is popularized, it will bring about earth-shaking changes.

"Minister, I plan to promote this pinyin, okay?" Zhu Youjian said with a smile.

"What? Your Majesty! You can't do it! How virtuous and capable I am?" Fan Jingwen didn't know whether he was excited or excited, he couldn't even speak clearly.

"Ministers don't have to shirk, the matter has been settled."

After Fan Jingwen came out of Hongde Hall, he felt dizzy.

Why did such a good thing happen to him?

Promoting pinyin is an idea that Zhu Youjian had a long time ago.The reason for not taking action is simply fear of some people's backlash.Now he is not afraid.At best, kill a few more people.

New year 22

The Ming Dynasty Royal Publishing House was established.

Soon, the publisher published its first book:

"Chinese Pinyin"

Author: Fan Jingwen

The next day, the book appeared in major bookstores in Beijing.

Publishing "Hanyu Pinyin" is only the first task of the publishing house. In Zhu Youjian's plan, the publishing house will also be responsible for the publication of teaching materials and newspapers.

He divided the teaching materials into four categories: elementary teaching materials, secondary teaching materials, advanced teaching materials, and professional teaching materials.Corresponding to the four stages of education: primary school, junior high school, high school, and university.

"Hanyu Pinyin" is just a test.

Look at the reactions from both the government and the opposition.

New year 28

A student from the Imperial College walked into a bookstore casually, browsed around casually, and asked the boss:
"Shopkeeper, are there any new books recently?"

The shopkeeper took a look and saw that he was a regular customer.

What is the name of a student whose ancestral home is Suzhou?During Su Qin's time, his family had quite a lot of money.Having said that, who can go to bookstores these days if they don’t have money?

"Mr. Su, the new year has just passed, so there are no new books. It's almost the same as before."

"Oh, that's okay, forget it if you don't have it."

Su Qinshi said and walked out.

"Hey, Mr. Su, please stay. If there is indeed a new book. The price is also cheap. Do you want to take a look?"

"Take it out. It's still hidden. Is it some kind of forbidden book?" Su Qinshi said angrily.

The shopkeeper ran into the room and took out a thin booklet.

"Master Su, please take a look. This was forced down by the troops from the five cities above. There are criss-crossed circles inside, just like ghost talismans. I don't know what they are." The shopkeeper muttered and handed the "Chinese Pinyin" to Su. Qin Shi.

Su Qinshi took a look at it curiously.

"Hanyu Pinyin? The author, Fan Jingwen. Fan Jingwen? Chief Assistant!?" He couldn't help shouting.When the shopkeeper next to him heard this, he was shocked!Was this book written by Shou Fu?I wonder why it sounds so familiar!
Su Qinshi couldn't wait to open it and read through it. The more he looked at it, the uglier his face became.

"Why did Mr. Zhi do such a thing that cut off his own foundation?"
